I love it! It all looks amazing, even the CG. The music is great too and Susumu has returned. As far as the VAs go, I prefer the new Griffith. Gutts is solid and about the same. Zodd is great. Haven't heard enough of Casca but she sounds fine. Overall, this trailer really got me pumped!

I'm usually not one to complain about CG, but isn't there a little too much of it here? It seems there's not a single shot with a horse where it isn't CG...

And I don't see how Guts is about the same, that guy has a very different pitch from Nobutoshi Canna. Takahiro Sakurai's Griffith sounds good, though I'll save definitive comparisons with Toshiyuki Morikawa's portrayal of him for when I watch the actual film and not just a few lines in the trailer. But for now, I doubt I'll prefer it. Sakurai's sounds too down to earth, Morikawa's had this more otherworldly feel to him, which suited the near larger-than-life entity that was Griffith very well. We'll see.

Yeah, it looks like Studio 4C really messed this one up. Their over-enthusiasm in expanding their CG usage and trying to fuse both 2D and 3D as an artwork might be commendable for the good intentions, but their actual end result shows that they still have a long way to go because it actually works out well. Really unfortunate.

That's because this remake is adhering to the manga art style much more strongly. The 1997 anime made Griffith look less effeminate (and much cooler looking IMO). Here he's completely faithful to his manga self, with dem lipstickilicious lips and everything.

I really like how the feminine look of Griffith contrasts with the end of Golden Age.

Regarding the trailers. At the moment it seems my two main concerns are about the CG and the level of violence portrayed.

About the CG: I don't know. Am I supposed to look at superb CG animation and go "Oooh, that's so amazing!"? It certainly doesn't feel like that. The CG felt kind of out of place at times and awkward. I don't think CG is good just for sake of it. It could turn out great, though.

Violence. The trailer shows some blood, but I wasn't really too impressed. Of course, showcasing violence is hardly the goal of these trailers. Still, I feel the dark and gloomy atmosphere of Berserk rises from the realistic violence. Anyone can loose an arm or get their face smashed in. But the beginning of Golden Age isn't that dark. Although, Guts does earn the nickname "hundred man slayer" somewhere in there (can't remember).
